Pink Floyd In Court Regular visitors will recall we reported in early 2009 that Pink Floyd were about to sue EMI claiming that the label has miscalculated their royalty payments. Now the matter has reached the High Court and hearings commence today (March 9th). Pink Floyd signed with EMI in 1967 and have been one of the company's most profitable acts. In the last 25 years, sales of their back catalogue have only been bettered by the Beatles. A spokesman for Pink Floyd said no members of the band were likely to attend court at this "early stage". UPDATE Pink Floyd Win Case. Pink Floyd tracks may be removed from digital music services like iTunes after the High Court ruling today (March 11). Their latest record deal, signed with EMI before legal downloads came along, said individual songs must not be sold without the band's permission. They argued that the same rule should apply to digital sales as well as CDs. EMI disagreed but a judge has sided with Pink Floyd. The ruling is part of a long-running battle between the two sides over £10m in unpaid royalties. EMI said it had not yet been ordered to stop selling single Pink Floyd tracks. That may come at a later stage in the case, however. In court, Chancellor Sir Andrew Morritt said the contract contained a clause to "preserve the artistic integrity of the albums". He said the contract meant EMI were "not entitled to exploit recording by online distribution or by any other means other than the original album, without the consent of Pink Floyd".

Tour Dates To Be Announced In April? We understand (unofficially) that the Roger Waters tour dates are to be announced in April sometime. We have also heard mention of 50+ dates, although it's unclear if this is to be at 50+ venues or the 8 cities as originally planned with multiple dates at each. Our guess is 50 arenas but we can't confirm that at this time. We will continue to keep you updated as news come in. In the meantime hundreds of fans are joining THE FORUM each week to get the inside scoop on the latest information. Many of you will be aware that during Roger's last tour we had cast & crew members on the forum and expect this time to be no different. Come and join us and keep yourself informed!

Roger Waters Tour Latest Information is now starting to flow and here's some news to keep you up to date. Andy Fairweather Low (who has been a regular in Roger's band on & off for 24 years) will not be on the upcoming Wall Tour. Andy has has confirmed in a Recent Interview (25 Feb) that he was approached by Roger to join him but due to a number of factors will not be on board this time around. It's now becoming clear the the tour will not commence until LATE this year and all the indicators are that it will go ahead, despite there being no official announcement at this time. Although not official, we are hearing rumblings that Dave Kilminster will get the lead spot but there will be no participation by Ian Ritchie (both of whom toured with Roger previously). Don't forget you can get more up to the minute news on THE FORUM

Walk For Syd When Syd Barrett left London and returned home to Cambridge he decided he’d walk all the way – a story which has since become legend. Now, over the coming Easter weekend the Syd Barrett Memorial Walk will take place.The challenge will begin at the Roundhouse in Camden, (London) a venue Syd played with Pink Floyd in 1967, and will terminate in Syd's home city of Cambridge. (Duplicating Syd's walk as far as possible). The walk is to raise money for the Syd Barrett Fund, which supports the work of the Socially inclusive arts charity Escape Artists, who help disadvantaged people to access the arts as a means for improving wellbeing, confidence, skills and employability. You can join in the walk, or perhaps make a donation to this worthy cause by visiting http://www.justgiving.com/sydbarrettwalk

Dope In Scotland The cult movie DOPE will be screening at the Glasgow Film Festival on Sunday 28 Feb at 16.00. Regular visitors will recall we reviewed this movie last year because it features a couple of minutes of Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd performing at UFO in 1967.

The End Of Abbey Road? Abbey Road, the London recording studios immortalised by The Beatles album of the same name has been put on the market by EMI. Pink Floyd fans will know that this is where The Dark Side Of The Moon was recorded (and of course The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn at the same time The Beatles were recording Sgt. Pepper). EMI have not commented at this time, but it appears that a number of people familiar with the situation told the Financial Times EMI had been courting bidders for the property. EMI bought the house at number 3 Abbey Road for £100,000 in 1929 and transformed it into the world’s first custom-built recording studios.
